1. Characters:

On the whole, the role of the heroine is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, whether it is the love of a mother, the self-esteem and self-improvement of a wife or a daughter-in-law, or the coping of a strong woman and ordinary people, there are many scenes. detailed performance;

Plummer's performance is remarkable, but with Kevin Spacey's jewels in front, it always makes people imagine;

Mark's performance was average, and in front of the heroine, he was more like a virtuous helper, helping at the right time.

On the contrary, Charlie Plummer , who played little Paul , was pleasantly surprised by the performance of the kidnappers, whether it was the panic at the beginning, the anger and pain when his ears were cut, or the joy and release when he was finally rescued. I saw the acting of a handsome young man.

2. Plot:

Overall, the plot does not have too many suspense and ups and downs. After all, it is a real person who has changed, but the story of a billionaire is enough to tell, and no matter how fictional it is, it will be out of reality.

However, the kidnapper "Fifty" in it is a "socially correct" existence - after all, there are still many good people in the world.

3. Feeling: Mr. Scott guides the reality film, there is always a kind of psychedelic and treacherous "Alien".

    This story-driven film maintains the biggest suspense of the case among multiple narrative lines until the end, which makes it a good crime suspense film. However, its story-driven narrative is confusing in terms of role ambitions. Xiaomi and Plummer's interpretation of the roles by two strong actors is stronger than the character creation at the text level, and the lack of strength and support of the ending shot is a direct manifestation of the film's ambitions in the plot and the role.

    Moderate. It would be nice to dig a little deeper into the setting that Old Getty doesn't believe that humans are only obsessed with matter. Italy is so beautiful under the lens. Michelle Williams played the role of Desperate Mother very well.

All the Money in the World quotes

  • J. Paul Getty: It's a good day.

    Fletcher Chace: I'm glad to hear that, Mr. Getty. It'll make this much easier. We need to pay the ransom.

    J. Paul Getty: I thought you said this was a hoax.

    Fletcher Chace: Your grandson was kidnapped by members of the Calabrese' Ndrangheta. Two of the original kidnappers are dead, and one is missing.

    J. Paul Getty: That sounds like progress to me.

    Fletcher Chace: I'm afraid not, all right? They got nervous waiting for the ransom. They sold the boy to an investor.

    J. Paul Getty: "An investor"? Who invests in kidnapped children?

    Fletcher Chace: You'd be surprised. There's nothing people can't find a way to turn into money.

    J. Paul Getty: You told me that Paul and his mother had cooked this up to soak me.

    Fletcher Chace: And I was wrong, all right? Paul may have talked about being kidnapped with his friends. He put it out there. He's not behind this.

    J. Paul Getty: How do I know that you're not wrong now?

    Fletcher Chace: These people are not the old-world Malavita anymore. Their only code is profit and loss. They will do things to Paul that cannot be undone for any amount of money. We have to pay

    J. Paul Getty: Well, this simply isn't possible. My financial position has changed.

    Fletcher Chace: Really? I mean, 30 seconds ago,you said it was a good day. I mean, I'm not all that bright, but I can multiply as well as you. With oil up as much as it was this morning, you have amassed another fortune.

    J. Paul Getty: Well, what if the embargo is lifted and oil were to crash? I'd be exposed. I have never been more vulnerable financially than I am right now.

    Fletcher Chace: Mr. Getty, with all due respect, nobody has ever been richer than you are at this moment.

    J. Paul Getty: I have no money to spare.

    Fletcher Chace: What would it take? I mean, what would it take for you to feel secure?

    J. Paul Getty: More

  • Corvo: Forgive me, Ms. Getty. Just one last question, regarding your testimony earlier. Why did you think the kidnapping was a joke?

    Gail Harris: It's a *figure of speech*. The whole situation was unbelievable. It still is.

    Corvo: Well, tragic, yes, but not unbelievable.

    Fletcher Chace: It's not tragic *yet*. Maybe you ought to work on keeping it that way.

    [later]

    Fletcher Chace: Did Paul ever talk to you about having himself kidnapped?

    Gail Harris: You've got to remember who the Gettys are. Every time someone stays in the bathroom for too long, someone makes a joke about being held for ransom. Paul might have cracked a joke once or twice among friends...

    Fletcher Chace: [points] There's that word again.

    Gail Harris: What word?

    Fletcher Chace: A "joke". You said you thought it was a joke when it first happened.

    Gail Harris: Now you sound like that policeman. Whose side are you on, Mr. Chace?

    Fletcher Chace: I'm on my own side. Always. And if this is a joke, I'd like to make sure that I'm in on it.
